My baby isn’t happy

Just to add, I play with her I sing to her we go out every day whether it’s to classes or friends or family .. I’m not sure why she’s so unhappy. Would a gp laugh in my face if I took her and asked why is she unhappy?

So sorry you are experiencing this! Not sure regarding the GP.. but I wonder if it could be discomfort such as stomach issues? Maybe constipation or cows milk allergy?

I could of written this myself, my little one is the exact same and has been for a few months now. Nothing seems to please her and she just lets out the biggest scream half of the time, I’m just taking it as a phase and that it’ll get better the older she gets, my little one is like a stroppy teenager x

Awh no, they can be such fussy little ones! Not had your exact scenario but had many times where he just whinges all day. Not sure if you want to try TV time but have you tried dancing fruits on You tube? They usually like that as it's baby sensory colours. Does she laugh and smile? I have to talk silly and play silly games to get reactions.

It’s defo worth a gp check if you feel she is super unhappy. I would say that the fact she cries when she sees you isn’t her not liking you it’s her seeing you and remembering you exist and then likely wanting to be close to you ❤️! My daughter is the exact same when I’m around whereas when she’s with other people she can be more chill but then as soon as I walk back into the room she’s like ‘ah my mummy I want her now’ so cries. Babies also have super short attention spans so I find if I’m playing with her she will get fussy/frustrated quite quickly but if I switch up the environment/her position/the activity etc it helps. You’re definitely not doing anything wrong. From 6 months until they can move I think they tend to be frustrated little things as they have more awareness of what they want but no way to get it through communication or movement. It eased off with my eldest when she could move ❤️! Sending you a big hug and hoping you find your answers x

My little boy has intolerance to gluten and lactose and he was just an upset fussy baby for ages because of it! He’s happy now! But he use to cry more with me because I was his comfort blanket that he could let it out to!

I second everything @Molly said as that’s how my baby reacts too..she’s definitely crying when she sees you cause she wants you to pick her up and she wants you..and definitely changing up environment and type of game or song we are playing helps calm her down for a bit when she starts being fussy..if she’s fussing all the time then it’s definitely worth a doctors visit you never know it could be some form of discomfort too..all the best and hope everything works itself out
